Preface

Hello there, I was honestly baffled as to how I should begin my blogging journey. A multitude of creative ideas fluttered around my brain, but it seemed odd to begin those projects without appropriately introducing myself. So here you go, my name is Samantha Elise and if you caught me on my perfect Sunday afternoon I would most likely be cuddled near the fireplace, hardback in hand, & grazing on a french macaron; my go-to album of the day would be the pitter patter of raindrops & never-ending belly laughs. Thank you for joining me on this creative adventure.

much love,
Samantha

Words of inspiration:

"Let yourself fall. Learn to observe snakes. Plant impossible gardens. Invite a dangerous person for tea. Make little characters who say "yes" and distribute them everywhere throughout your house. Become a friend of freedom and uncertainty, Look forward to dreams. Cry at a movie. Swing as high as you can on a swing in the moonlight. Provide different moods. Refuse to be made "responsible". Do it for love. Do a lot of naps. Give away money, Do it now, the money will follow. Believe in magic. Smile a lot. Bathe in the moonlight. Dream wild, fantastic dreams. Draw on walls. Read every day, Imagine that you are enchanted. Play with children, Listen to old people. Open yourself, dive into it, be free. Praise yourself, drop fear. Play with anyone. Take care of the child in yourself. You are innocent. Build a fortress with blankets. Let yourself become wet. Embrace trees. Write love letters," -Joseph Beuys
